Bill Cosby’s lawyers told a Pennsylvania judge on Wednesday that the comedian is ‘too blind’ to recognize a group of women who claim he drugged and sexually abused them.
“In the materials the prosecution has turned over…there are photographs. Mr. Cosby cannot look at a photograph,” defense lawyer Angela Agrusa said. “He can’t tell you what is in that picture.”
“There is no evidence in this case that Mr. Cosby doesn’t have the ability to recollect events,” O’Neil said. “You’re taking the leap to say sight equals the inability to recollect events because you wouldn’t be able to see things that trigger memories.
“My client is not a meme. He’s a human being. And his rights have been trampled. By ego and ambition. I think the discussion stops there,” Agrusa said.
“He is physically impaired,” Agrusa said. “I do not have the skills to be able to explain to him how to see. We can’t test his memory because he can’t see. He’s 79 years old. He may very well have memory issues.”
